Babysitters in Essendon West, VIC

Hi! I'm Ash. I have been nannying since 2016 and absolutely love it! I left my last full-time nanny role in August to start working a 9-5 in my career as a photographer. However, I have been missing nannying SO much. I'm hoping to find some after work shifts or the occasional weekend for a beautiful family! I bring with me years of experience with children from newborn age-11 years from positions as a live-in nanny, oosh, agency and full time nannying. I’m fun-loving, deeply caring & responsible with so much love to give your littles. I have employee WWCC & First Aid. Willing to obtain a police check. I look forward to meeting my next wonderful family! <3

Hi, I'm Emma! I am currently working my fourth in a early childhood care centre and I am deeply passionate about the caring and teaching of children, helping them grow in all their developmental areas, and making sure that they are having fun! I have primarily worked with the ages 2.5 - 4 years, but have had lots of experiences with other ages and am confident in their routines and developement stages through these ages. I am currently working casual in childcare, before and after school care, holiday program, and have some families that i care for on the side as I am studying Psychology so casual or part time babysitting would be very practical for me!
